Meatball Cheese Tortilla Melt (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
400 g frozen meatballs, thawed and halved
02 -
680 g spaghetti sauce, any variety
03 -
225–340 g shredded mozzarella cheese
04 -
10 or more wheat flour tortillas
# Instructions:
01 -
Lightly coat a large skillet with non-stick cooking spray and preheat over medium heat.
02 -
Position one tortilla so half sits flat in the pan and the other half drapes over the pan’s edge.
03 -
Distribute shredded mozzarella evenly over the tortilla half in the pan, then arrange meatball halves on top of the cheese.
04 -
Spoon approximately 30 ml of spaghetti sauce over the meatballs and cheese. Sprinkle with additional mozzarella.
05 -
Fold the overhanging half of the tortilla to cover the filling, forming a semicircle.
06 -
Cook until the bottom is golden and cheese is melted, about 2–3 minutes.
07 -
Using two spatulas for control, flip the quesadilla and cook the second side until golden and the cheese is fully melted, 2–3 minutes more.
08 -
Transfer finished quesadilla to a plate, slice with a pizza cutter, and repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve warm, optionally with extra marinara sauce.
# Notes:
01 -
Allow the quesadillas to rest briefly before slicing for easier handling and to avoid filling spillage.
